Christmas market in Saarbrücken

Saarbrücken's historical St. Johanner Markt square and the region's most popular shopping street, Bahnhofstrasse, provide the ideal setting for the Christmas market. The quaint Alpine hut and the rustic winter barn both offer a congenial atmosphere. Every evening at 5pm and 7pm, Father Christmas and his reindeer sleigh hover over the market suspended on wires as he tells the story of Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer. Nestled amidst the romantic German-French Garden, Saarbrücken's Medieval Christmas market is like something from a fairytale.
